appearance: medium intensity, with a lemony color. nose: very pronounced, with armoas of gooseberry, freshly cut grass, honey, lemon, and white flowers. palate: off-dry, with average acidity and body, with flavors of straw, melon, hints of mango, and peaches for days. the length is average as well. overall: a very crisp chardonnay. excellent nose, very aromatic, and complex. nice acidity as well, and the body is decent with a nice finish. this reminds me very much of their sauvignon blanc, although i think the s.b. is a bit better with more acidity and a bigger attack. still a good wine. i give it an 87.

The best New Zealand sauvignon blanc I've had all-year. No wonder it was a hit in 22 countries before coming to the States. Zippy kiwi, limeade notes, without being eye-poppingly tart. Sancerre-like minerality; wonderfully lingering finish.

Quintessential New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc: tart, kiwi, startfruit, lemon zestnotes on the nose, bracing acidity in the palate. Mouthpuckering, as expected. As zesty as the fight in US Congress this evening. (Thank goodness no government shutdown.)
